Dear colleagues,

it is our pleasure to announce Star clusters 2020.
As the birth place of perhaps most of the stars, star clusters offer an incredible testbed for theories of star formation, stellar structure, stellar populations, stellar dynamics and much more, including theories of galaxy formation. This small conference is open to all astronomers working on star clusters and related fields, with a special emphasis on those working in Chile. The conference will be limited to about 40 participants.

There will be no conference fee, and limited aid for graduate students (in the form of accommodation) will be available. For more information, please visit the conference website.
